Some of the highlights of Linux kernel 6.12 include Clang support (including LTO) for nolibc, support for the cpuidle tool to display the residency value of cpuidle states for a clearer and more detailed view of idle state information when using cpuidle-info, support for NVIDIA’s virtual command queue implementation for SMMUv3, and SWIG bindings for libcpupower making easier to write scripts that use and extend libcpupower’s functionality.
